The 2011 Rugby World Cup was a defining tournament for Welsh rugby. Under the leadership of a young Sam Warburton, Wales played some of the most exciting rugby of the competition — defeating Samoa, Namibia, and Fiji in Pool D, and famously outplaying Ireland 22–10 in the quarterfinal.

Their campaign ended heartbreakingly in the semifinal against France, where Wales lost 9–8 after Warburton’s controversial red card — but their courage and flair won them fans around the world. The team went on to finish fourth overall, marking one of Wales’s best World Cup performances in history.

A must-have for any Welsh rugby supporter or sports memorabilia collector — a timeless reminder of one of Wales’s most iconic World Cup journeys. This authentic 2011 Rugby World Cup Wales jersey has been autographed by the full Welsh squad who captured the world’s attention in New Zealand with their thrilling performances and fearless play.
